	There is a bug with the snmp counters for pps data.

	There's a whole slew of bugs on it, because Cisco can't
seem to sort through who is at fault, the platform group the driver
group, etc..

	it breaks serial interfaces.

	try one of these bugs:

	CSCec70109 or CSCec53858.

	There's also some other more cosmetic bugs such as

	CSCec24361 which will be see by rancid users.  I'm trying
		to get Cisco to test with rancid in their labs
		to detect these things and other pointless config
		reordering that they still haven't been able to
		fully explain to me.

	CSCec30784/CSCeb24174 - cosmetic but there
	CSCec24179/CSCeb12482/CSCec40432 - cosmetic but there

	then i've been trying for years to get Cisco to fix some
other bugs that are seen by rancid users, whereby the timestamp changes
on files in flash (and ata disk) whenever a DST change happens.  I've
been working on this for 2+ years and they keep fixing half the problem
to only find a new one each time the time changes.
